Phys. Rev. A 73, 063810 (2006) [13 pages]Polarization states of four-dimensional systems based on biphotonsReceived 17 February 2006; published 9 June 2006 We discuss the concept of polarization states of four-dimensional quantum systems based on the frequency nondegenerate biphoton field. Several quantum tomography protocols were developed and implemented for the measurement of an arbitrary state of ququart. A simple method that does not rely on the interferometric technique is used to generate and measure the sequence of states that can be used for quantum communication purposes. © 2006 The American Physical Society URL:
